Recipe Note

Instead of the regular rice milk used in horchata, I use 2%. I remember drinking horchata in high school all the time, I loved it. I decided to make it into a smoothie using vanilla ice cream, cinnamon, honey, vanilla extract, mint (just for fun), and milk. Garnish with mint leaves if desired.
